Koi Cushion

Is it strange that I LOVE this pillow



…since in real life I’m terrified of koi? I’m serious – have you ever seen them swarm for food. They make barking noises.

At our old condo, there was a koi pond, and one day as we were standing on the bridge looking down at the writhing koi, Chris commented on the sludgy looking algae water.

Chris: Gross. Can you imagine falling into that water?

Kate: I would literally have a heart attack if I fell in that water.

This is how afraid I am of the koi. And how you know I must really like that pillow.

Lovely Lamps

Earlier this month, Susan from Shandell’s added some gorgeous lamps to her Etsy shop. She made shades with the hand made paper of artist, Dana Curtis and paired them with vintage lamps.





I love how unique lamps bring personality to a room. It’s so easy to find something neutral to “go with” the existing furnishings. But why can’t lamps be used as art?

It should come as no surprise that this one is my favorite.


It would be perfect in my parents’ shop (speaking of…we’ve got some guest posters at Style Key West this week – drop by and say hello!)

Rosie Campbell Belts

How cute are these?









Discovered through a comment on one of Friday’s posts, Rosie Campbell immediately caught my eye with those bright colors and whimsical animal designs. If you ever asked me if I wanted a blue belt with a big pink buckle sporting a seahorse I would have laughed. But these are just too adorable. I want one of each!
